- And I like university professors, but you know, we shouldn't hold them up as the high-water mark of all human achievement.
- 我倾慕大学教授的学识，但我们不应该用这样一个头衔作为衡量一个人成功与否的分水岭。
- They're just a form of life, another form of life.
- 其实大学教授只是360行中的一行。
- But they're rather curious, and I say this out of affection for them.
- 只不过他们比较好求知，我这样说不是因为对他们的倾慕。
- There's something curious about professors in my experience -- not all of them, but typically, they live in their heads.
- 在我看来，大学教授有个特点，虽然不是共性，但很典型，他们只用脑子生活。
- They live up there, and slightly to one side. They're disembodied, you know, in a kind of literal way.
- 而且偏重于大脑的一侧。用书面语来说就是，他们脑体分离。
- They look upon their body as a form of transport for their heads. Don't they?
- 他们只是把身体当作大脑的载体而已，难道不是吗？
- It's a way of getting their head to meetings.
- 这个载体可以载着大脑去开会。
- If you want real evidence of out-of-body experiences,
- 如果你想亲身体验，
- get yourself along to a residential conference of senior academics, and pop into the discotheque on the final night.
- 你就去参加一次会议，学术研讨会，然后在会议结束后再去迪厅蹦迪。
- And there, you will see it. Grown men and women writhing uncontrollably, off the beat.
- 在那你会看到成年男女在不和乐拍地疯狂摇摆。
- Waiting until it ends so they can go home and write a paper about it.
- 期待夜晚的结束，好回家写篇关于蹦迪的论文。
- Our education system is predicated on the idea of academic ability. And there's a reason.
- 注重培养学术能力的观点根植于我们的教育体系之中。形成这种状况还有个原因。
- The whole system was invented, around the world, there were no public systems of education, really, before the 19th century.
- 所有国家的教育体系在最初建立时，也就是在19世纪之前，那时教育还不是公共事业。
- They all came into being to meet the needs of industrialism.
- 那时建立教育体系是为了满足工业化发展的需要。
- So the hierarchy is rooted on two ideas.
- 所以有两点基本的等级原则。
- Number one, that the most useful subjects for work are at the top.
- 第一点，对工作最实用的科目是最重要的科目。
- So you were probably steered benignly away from things at school when you were a kid, things you liked,
- 这样就能轻易地避开孩子们喜欢的科目，从小就不让他们碰触。
- on the grounds that you would never get a job doing that. Is that right?
- 理由就是不这样学就找不到工作。对吗？
- Don't do music, you're not going to be a musician; don't do art, you won't be an artist.
- 别玩音乐了，你成不了音乐家；别画画了，你成不了艺术家。
- Benign advice -- now, profoundly mistaken. The whole world is engulfed in a revolution.
- 这些温和的忠告--筑成现在的大错。全世界都被卷入了工业革命的热潮。
